Rebalance a volume's capacity in BlueXP workload factory
Rebalance the capacity of a volume in BlueXP workload factory to avoid imbalances that develop over time.
Rebalancing a volume redistributes the capacity when imbalances develop over time due to the addition of new files and file growth. After you manually start the rebalance operation, we select the files and move them automatically and non-disruptively.
Rebalancing a volume is only supported for FlexGroup volumes. |
To rebalance a volume, you must associate a link. If you don't have an existing link, create a link. To associate a link in the file system, select Associate link under Account name. Once the link associates, return to this operation.
